A new retro-aza-ene reaction: formal reductive amination of an α-keto acid to an α-amino acid
摘要:
Two diastereomeric reductive amination reagents, 1a and 1b, were synthesized. Each reagent was condensed with ethyl pyruvate as a model alpha-keto acid. Flash vacuum pyrolysis of the pyruvate adducts, 10a and 10b, results in cheleotropic elimination of CO, followed by a new type of retro-aza-ene reaction. A molecule of benzene and a protected alanine derivative, 11, are produced in the retro-ene reaction. This sequence constitutes the first formal reductive amination of an alpha-keto acid via a thermal rearrangement. Diastereomer 10b undergoes the rearrangement more readily than diastereomer 10a, indicating that an exo transition state is preferred over an endo transition state for this particular retro-aza-ene reaction.

Reduction of protected alpha-vinyl amino acids produces ''neopentyl'' alcohols that may be enriched in the L-antipode by lipase-mediated acylation with vinyl acetate. Subsequent deacetylation, oxidation and hydrolysis yields enantiomerically enriched L-alpha-vinyl amino acids.
